pop up windows

Try NoPops, a free download from:

(Sometimes when I cut and paste URL's it looks ok to me but once the answer is posted, an extraneous space will have crept in. Make sure you delete any extraneous spaces orthe page won't load).

AdsOff is another good one: www.adsoff.com

In addition to popup windows, it blocks cookies from known advertisers like doubleclick, and removes ads from most web pages.

I would suggest Pop-Up Stopper 2.2. You can actually CONTROL what you want to pop-up (like forms) and what you don't (like advertisements). This is by far the best pop-up eliminator I've seen so far.

popUp Killer from ZDNET.COM works very well and can be controlled. Another way around this issue and be able to kill 2 birds with one program is to use LAVASOFT ADWARE which will control popups and remove spyware from your system.
